If you have a room booked at Disney’s Beach Club Resort, make sure you check this out!

Beach Club Resort in Disney World

Yesterday, Disney dropped A TON of information about what Disney World will look like when it reopens! We learned which restaurants will reopen on June 22nd, where we can experience a modified Character Dining experience, changes to the Disney World Resort hotel experience, and more.

Speaking of changes to Disney World Resort hotel experiences, when the news first dropped last night, it was announced that Stormalong Bay at Disney’s Yacht and Beach Club resorts will not be available during the initial reopening period, and guests at this hotel may visit the leisure pool at Disney’s Beach Club Villas.

But wait, there’s more! Disney has now updated the information stating that guests staying at Beach Club may also use the Luna Park Pool and leisure pool at Disney’s BoardWalk Villas.

Drone pilot received tresspassing warning for trying to get photos of Disney World

Drone

Looks like Dumbo and Peter Pan are not the only ones flying in the sky above Walt Disney’s Magic Kingdom. Last month, Disney security observed a drone the size of a frisbee flying within 100 feet of Cinderella Castle. It surprised the Disney workers when they witnessed an unauthorized drone passing through Walt Disney World Resort. The incident happened on May 20th, 2020.

According to the incident report, the man who owned the drone was issued a trespass warning. An off-duty Orange County deputy found the 40-year old Minneola man piloting the drone from the parking lot of an apartment complex. The name of the drone pilot has not been released since he wasn’t charged with a crime. Several sheriffs cars arrived on the scene when they found the drone pilot near Reams Road. He didn’t live at the apartment complex, but he traveled there so he could get close enough to pilot his drone. The man thought there would be no harm in him filming. Since then, he deleted the footage he filmed and apologized for his actions.

“I didn’t think I was doing anything wrong,” he said. “I don’t want to get into more trouble with Disney.”

Walt Disney World Resort does not permit unauthorized drones, and the FAA authorizes a no-fly zone for the property. The good news is that no harm came from this incident, but it is a reminder that Disney security is looking out for the safety of guests on the resort premises.

Check Out this Disney World Emporium Lego Ideas

Here at Chip and co we love creative Lego ideas and we are especially loving this Disney World Emporium LEGO ideas! Here developer André Blix has created the “greatest emporium located in the happiest place on earth!”, creating the famous Emporium shop at the Magic Kingdom, Walt Disney World.

Disney World Emporium Lego ideas

André Blix’s Disney World Emporium features a two-story modular building functioning as a store on the first floor, and then a showcase on the second floor! The Disney World Emporium Lego ideas were made out of 2558 lego bricks. The designer mentioned that he hopes one day to complete the entire “Main Street USA” with shops, scenery and ride tributes (we love a good easter egg!).

According to the description, the two floors contain:

1st Floor store:

  • 2 x Product shelves
  • Check out area
  • Mickey Mouse wall decoration
  • Gift shop display
  • Entrance to adjacent modular building

2nd Floor attraction:

  • “Pirates of the Caribbean” boat ride (not affiliated with the movie franchise)
  • Scenery and figures complimenting ride
  • Fun

We adore the attention to detail from the developer, including Mary Poppins and of course, the large Mickey Mouse behind the till! We really hope he continues developing to complete “Main Street USA!”

Disney Springs Is BUSTLING Today, and World of Disney is BACK On A Virtual Queue

Some days are busier than others at the recently reopened Disney Springs, and today Walt Disney World’s shopping district is on the heavier side with crowds!

World of Disney line on June 7

As a part of new health and safety measures, stores are limiting capacity. And on a day like today when Disney Springs is quite busy, that means lines.

When we were strolling around Disney Springs this afternoon, we noticed that World of Disney had implemented its virtual queue!

To help keep the line orderly, there were social distancing markers on the ground, with cast members enforcing the spacing.

The line was lengthy when we first got to it, and World of Disney has been turning the virtual queue on and off all afternoon.

Disney Springs certainly is busy today, but with World of Disney selling everything from new character socks to Baby Yoda plushes and more ADORABLE merch, we definitely understand why.

Heading to Disney Springs soon? Here’s EVERYTHING you need to know about the reopened shopping center!
